    The 2000s were garbage and this cover was a terrible one-hit wonder that was mocked relentlessly when it was released

      The 2000's and the 1990's are easily some of the most overrated decades. This age of unchecked American triumphalism produced some of the most mindless consumerism, some of the most cringeworthy music, and some of the most dogshit politics.

      You need to have amnesia to be nostalgic for this period.

        I was a tiny baby child during the 90s and 00s and should be the prime target for 90s nostalgia. Yeah, sure, I like some 90s stuff, retro games and tech etc. But the culture? Fuck no. I would never god back.

        The shit I endured from growing up in that era cannot be stressed enough.

      Finally someone who remembers the 2000s for what they were. I swear when I talk to people it’s like they have amnesia. If I could depict the 2000s as an image it would be a hot rod flame Hawaiian shirt and cargo shorts. That’s what the 2000s we’re like.
